did go talk to tamerlan. what if they didn't find anything, he wasn't doing anything radical? >> i don't know what you think you're going to find and they say no, i'm not. i think the fact that the russian government told us that this is a guy that is a possible terrorist, a couple of his husband preliminary sympathies were expressed should have been enough to put him on a list. then when he went to russia, somebody should have said, what's this guy doing in russia for six months and nobody asked, how is he supporting himself? russia, six months? no salary? an american can't do that. >> steve: apparently they have welfare up in massachusetts. >> it costs a lot of money to travel to russia. >> brian: mr. mayor, i could actually add to that because port gossage was heard, he believes there was little coordination between the f.b.i. and c.i.a. in this respect. he goes to russia and then goes from there, it looks like to one of the most vicious places in the world where they train the worst of the worst. by the way, he went to visit his dad, who knows nothing about what happened t
